03.13.23 -- The Who, What, And Where Behind Photonics' Explosive Growth

Finding the ideal ultra-fast laser source for a multiphoton imaging setup is not trivial. It is a fine balance between peak power, pulse energy, and laser wavelength.

Magnetic tweezer experiments often seek to measure changes in the extension or relaxation of a polymer, a functionality useful, for example, in exploring how different enzymes manipulate polymer structures.

The P-725.xCDE2 PIFOC Focus Scanner provides dynamic scanning with travel ranges of 100 µm, 400 µm, or 800 µm and significantly faster response and longer lifetime than motorized drives.

Precision Glass & Optics is offering an innovative re-polishing service that can give an optic new life when the original dielectric coating does not meet the specifications or was damaged during the manufacturing process.

The BaySpec Nomadic, a large-format Raman microscope, is an ideal tool for automatic wafer inspection, characterization, and Raman chemical imaging on large samples with a spatial resolution of up to 1 µm. In this application note, Raman spectroscopy is used as a solution to identify and characterize graphene, with a direct analysis of its structural information.

This article defines a number of glossary terms, from angle of incidence to spectral slope and more, related to thin film optical filters and their use.
